While I consider each of the mentioned fields as very exciting in its own right, +I am most interested in cases where they intersect with each other, e.g. rendering images with help of machine learning or intelligent agents in virtual environments. + +For my master's thesis I was able to find another one: the visualization of theory graphs. +Because of the complexity and size of those graphs traditional 2D-visualizations are often not sufficient. Using 3D-graphics the third dimension offers immensly more space. +Furthermore, virtual reality allows for intuitive and immersive interaction as well as a field of view that is not possible with a monitor. +The project as well as a demo video can be found on [GitHub](https://github.com/UniFormal/TGView3D) + + ### Contact -Email: "d." + lastname.replace("ü","ue") + "@" + this.domain +Email: richard.marcus@fau.de diff --git a/public/images/rmarcus.jpg b/public/images/rmarcus.jpg new file mode 100644 index 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000..1725d3a97e70bb27b27a42ce0ecce90926d6f39f Binary files /dev/null and b/public/images/rmarcus.jpg differ
